"WARTS AND ALL"
If you show something warts and all, you show it exactly as it is
without trying to hide any of its faults or weaknesses.
Example: The Kurt Cobain biography
is good because it's a real warts and all account of his life, and it
doesn't try to hide the more disturbing parts of his life.
Con todos sus defectos.
Example sentences:
- Are you sure you want to read the first draft? You'll see it warts and all, with all the mistakes and all the bad writing still there / ¿Estás seguro de que deseas leer el primer borrador? Verás que con todos sus defectos, con todos los errores y toda la mala escritura sigue ahí.
- People don't want to see an idealised version of his life. They want to know the real story, warts and all / La gente no quiere ver una versión idealizada de su vida. Ellos quieren saber la verdadera historia, con todos sus defectos.
